HIRAM UNAWED.

Housing Meeting Last Ntght-Fea-
 lures of the Proceedings Lively
 Times Impending in Free MasonrY-
 The Contemplated New Grand Lodge.
 A very large number of the members was present at Hiram lodge meeting last evening. The first degree was conferred on a candidate and two prominent citizens handed in their applications for membership. Action was taken respecting immediate dealing with any members of the lodge guilty of disloyalty, and the following resolution was unanimous ly adopted:
 Resolved That any member of Hiram lodge who has shall declare his allegiance to the Grand lodge of Connecticut while the present controversies exist between Hiram lodge and the Grand lodge shall by such act be suspended from membership while the present difficulty exists, or until such member shall revoke his declaration of allegi- ance to the Grand Lodge.
 The subject of establishing a new Grand lodge is receiving due consideration. A num- Der of lodges have sent word to Hiram that they are ready to unite in forming a new Grand lodge. Said Hiram men last night: 'Lively times may be hereafter expected in Free Masonry hereabouts, as the supporters of this ancient and popular lodge are on the increase daily, and the press and the public everywhere are strong in their denunciation of the recent action of the Grand lodge to- ward old Hiram. Applications also for membership keep pouring in, and next Thursday evening Hiram will work the third degree and receive into full membership two professional men of this city and enjoy 8 social banquet to which all the members of the Masonic fraternity are most cordially in vited. These banquets will be given quite frequently hereafter by Hiram lodge, who believe in sociality and with Masons being acquainted with each other.

ON PROTECTION.
The Young Mems Republican Club Addressed Last Evening By Hon. N.

The Young Mems Republican Club
 Addressed Last Evening By Hon. N.
 ID. SPerry.
 The Hon. N. D. Sperry delivered an ad- dress on Protection before the Young Mems Republican club last night The speaker was in a reminiscent mood and treated his audience to an interesting version of the old story of the improvidence of free trade and the beauties of cur restricted commercial relations with the nations of the world. He dealt with the question from the practical or business mans standpoint
 "free trades regime in other countries proves conclusiveIy that it's introduction in- to our happy land would paralyze our indus tries and occasion financial revolution and distress. It is said protection kills the farm ing interests. In answer let us see what protection does to the Con necticut farmer. Take for instance tobacco. The production of tobacco in Connecticut last year was two hundred million pounds. Now the little Island of Sumatra produces the finest tobac- co filler in the world, and duty of 37 per cent is levied on this imported article The result of the free introduction of the foreign article is self-evident, and it is a low esti- mate that the removal of the duty would drive two million dollars of Connecticut's wealth from the hands of it's agriculturists
 "The Democrats are bowling to get rid of the surplus I will tell you what would do with the surplus-make proper coast de- lenses and put adoat marine service worthy of the name. Last summer we had trouble with Canada over a little fishery dispute. Canada was the aggressor and our Secretary of the Navy could say naught against this most fragrant violation of international eti quette" MT. Sperry continued dealing wig orously with various political questions, and was very warmly applauded at the frequent telling hits made.

CONNECTICUT CENTRAL.

The New England Proposes to Buy
 the Equity of Redemption In the
 ROad-GoOdwin Puts in a Veto.
 A special meeting of the stockholders of the Connecticut Central road was held in Hartford yesterday, May 19. A foreclosure of the bonds of the road was secured in suit brought by the State treasurer, but was up- set by the Supreme court as invalid until the New York and New England road (the owner of the bonds) should make an accounting. At the meeting yesterday proposition was made by the New York and New England road to buy the equity of redemption; but before the vote was taken MT. Henry L. Goodwin appeared with 8 deputy sheriff and enjoined the men from voting on the stock of the Central which the New England owns about 1 800 shares. MT. Goodwin and his friends, who carry over 2,000 shares, voted the proposition down. This leaves the mat ter for an accounting. A board of directors was elected as follows:
 Daniel D. Warren Russell L. Wheeler, Ed ward Prickett, Carlos c. Kimball, David Gordon, Theodore M. Maltbie, William S. Colvin Simeon E. Baldwin, Hosmer P. Sted- man, Joseph A. Thompson, John Middleton. Mr. Warren was elected president and treas urer; MT. Wheeler, vice president, and T. M. Maltbie, secretary.
